3D Art - Modelling, Digital and Game Art

First up this month we are all very excited to be able to present you with an Interview with the character developer who has worked on projects like Fantastic Four, 300 and Journey to the Centre of the Earth 3D, the one and only Cesar Dacol Jr. In his interview we find out how it was to make the transition from make - up effects to computer based work.

This month we bring you the concluding chapter of our ZBrush Character Creation tutorial series, in which the super talented Rafael Grassetti shows us how to tackle the sculpting and texturing of a beautifully freakish monster of Frankenstein. We also welcome Federico Scarbini to 3DCreative this month with a fantastic Making Of detailing the creation of his recent character piece, Zenoth, the alien from Jupiter.

This month, keeping with 3DCreative tradition, we have our two artist interviews, the first of which is with the one and only David Giraud, possibly best known for his work as senior character artist on Assassin's Creed at Ubisoft Montreal, and who is currently working on the upcoming game based on the 3D science-fiction film directed by James Cameron, Avatar.
